Per a bunch of Slickdealer's recommendations, I picked up this [amazon.com] generic (RAVPower brand but they were "kicked" off Amazon due to financially incentivizing reviews) 61W GaN PD 3.0 wall charger to charge my surface pro 7+ on the go and hopefully connected to my Anker USB-C hub's PD input to allow for just one cable connection. It arrives Monday so we'll see how it works. No add'l charging inputs unfortunately but the Pro 7/7+ still has a USB A so that's a plus.

Im getting this instead.... i like the small form factor
Thank you

For folks who are being too picky, it's a still a bargain considering Apple 30W charger is sold for $39. I bought 85W obsidian model for $14 in 2020. It was a great deal considering it came with 6 feet cable. Cable died after few months, but charger is still going strong.

Worst thing was, even though Monoprice says that their cable is backed by lifetime warranty, they did not honor, or bother reply to my email.

I agree it's a good deal, but nearly everything is a good deal compared to apples accessories. That's a pretty poor reference point.

As for monoprice's guarantee. They have a RMA form on their website. I have gotten numerous cables replaced for free over the years. It's always painless and relatively quick.

Well, most folks out there only understand this Apply way.
Now for the same price, you can actually have 4 chargers

Regarding cable issues, it came bundled with the charger and the bundle has a 1 year warranty. So the RMA button is greyed out

Last time I bought from Monoprice and this brand charger, It died within days. It gave so much irregular voltage that my phone and laptop battries drained from 70% to 10% within minutes. Never again! Also, return is impossible.

Had this for 2 years. Its a weak charger. You devices will charge slow if you use both ports. USB A port sometimes doesn't work.

The price is nice but the USB-C port supports neither PPS nor the 20V profile commonly supported by laptops.

5V/3A, 9V/3A, 15V/2.6A

Good luck!

It says PD on the product page.

Hello, my understanding is many charger meeting some PD spec and does not mean that support all PD spec. For instance it does not support 20V that means you cannot charge many device at full speed. I have one of this charger and cannot charge my son's chrome book as it requires 20V.

Looks like a great deal. What's the catch? Most others 60 watt chargers are around$15-20.
